Great head unit

I've owned this product for about 6 months now, not only does it give great sound but the interface is great. Took a week or so to get used to, but once you learn the way to use the interface it's great. With the USB cable my ipod plays great and the sound is wonderful.

Kenwood radio

This radio is really neat. Only 1 slight problem the bluetooth sounds with static. other than that this device is worth every penny. i would recommend it to anyone that wants to own a radio that will last them.

Great Features, slight interface learning curve

The stereo is a great deal. It has a lot of features for the price and there's not much I can think of that would make it better.

The interface does have a slight learning curve. The hardest for me was operating the Bluetooth calling. I could easily dial a number but found it a little harder to dial using voice recognition or the phone book. Once you do it a few times it becomes easy.

The appearance is good but I did have to adjust the dimming features because on auto (default) it was too bright while driving at night. Easy fix!

Great Product at Pocket Friendly Price

This head unit is pretty good for the money. The bluetooth features really comes in handy when you are driving down the road and don't want to dig for your phone. It is also great when it comes to using the thumb drive to play music. I never run out of tunes to listen to.

Great item, but BT is somewhat wierd

Sometimes BT connects completely. I am able to switch songs from the Kenwood stereo.
However, a lot of times BT connects but I am able to switch songs on my phone only.

good HU

ok so i just got this headunit installed today and the sound is amazing. the bluetooth works great but could have a better mic so there is not so much static. the colors of this headunit are awesome. the only problem i have with this HU is that there are so many things to figure out like how to call somebody or how to set radio stations and so forth, but eventually ill figure it out

NICE

This works great and is an excellent product. This is a great player no matter what but considering the price you can't beat it. The controls take a little getting used to but can eventually be mastered.

Good Unit

My main reason for purchasing this unit was for the bluetooth. It allows me to drive my vehicle and talk on my cell without having it next to my ear and the voice comes through my car speakers.

Great Unit

This headunit has it all. Great price, great looks, and easily to use features. There are cheap head units, and then there are good head units that are cheaply priced. This is one of the latter. Great price, and has every option one should want out of a non double din unit.
I have installed 4 so far. Highly recommended
Easy to use, and looks super sharp!

Some good features...but

This is a good unit, and while I really like the bluetooth feature, rejecting calls isn't easy, navigating my iPod folders is also not very user friendly.

Awsome Product

Everything about this head unit is great. This is my first time installing a stereo in my car and it was a breeze because sonic electronix sends you everything you need. The blue tooth and the USB connection are the 2 things I use the most and both work great. The remote comes in handy too. 1 negative: the instruction manual did not help much for presetting the stations. All in All coming from a harsh critic, this is a great product and an even better company(sonic electronix) to deal with. Will be buy speakers from SE in the near future.

Great Deal

Head unit is all what you want: bluetooth, usb, mp3 and good quality. it takes some time to get used to the push buttons, but after a while you will be very happy.

Own and Love

The main reason for me purchasing this HU was because of the Bluetooth Audio Feature. I was very skeptical at first because i am die hard alpine customer, but since alpine does not make a product with a built in bluetooth audio receiver i decided to try this out. Not once have a regretted my choice. This HU looks amazing at night with its dozens of display features, my Type-R highs are much clearer and louder as well. As i said before the coolest feature of all is the bluetooth audio. It allows me to sync my Cowon S9 mp3 player directly with the headunit. Unlike a USB connection i still have full control of the MP3 player and can use it as a remote for the headunit, allowing me to select tracks, alter the volume level, and set different equalizers for best sound quality. This proves to be the most helpful when at bonfires because i can now control the track selections from the comfort of my lawn chair instead of always having to get up. The only complaint i have about this headunit is that it does not recognize the volume level when the vehicle is turned on, unlike the previous head unit i had that would gradually increase the volume when the vehicle was started, allowing me to keep my underwear clean. haha
One other thing is that i have only had this head unit for a couple of months and have been away at school for most of that period so i have no advice as far as durability goes for this product. (2 year warranty)

Worth it

i got this in December and have had no problems with it up to now. It take a week or two to get the contols down there is so many. but after that its amazing, the illumination is synced to my music its brighter than anyting else in my truck and its and eye and ear grabber! have yet to try the bluetooth though
